The basic documentation when starting an LLC includes Articles of incorporation which needs to be filed with the Secretary of state office in the respective state, formation of bylaws for the company, any other trade or confidentiality agreements, buy/sell related agreements, agreements for stakeholders, operating agreement and even agreement for every employee when starting an LLC.

Different regulations
